Opposition in tlie House | There is opposition to the bill in the House and this was made manifest I early this morning when the message ,! was received from Governor Brum i i baugh that he had signed the resolu ' | tion of the House and Senate recalling ' | the measure for the purpose of amend > I mcnt. Mr. Walton offered his amend | incnts proposing cutting out cities op | erating uni ler special charters, which " I meant Lancaster. Mr. Spangler, of [ York, then proposed an amendment ,! which would make the bill apply only to cities whielMiaVe full paid fire de partments. Krie is the only third class : city where there is full paid tire de partment. ' This provision had already been | stricken front the original bill because 1 it was held not to be constitutional and this effort again to make the bill un- I constitutional was defeated. Mr. Wal ton expects some opposition when the bill comes up for action, but he be lieves that his agreement with legisla tive leaders will carry the bill through. Other members of the House from third class cities who are eager to see , the bill pass, share Mr. Walton's op ' timistic view as to the chances of its passage. Bill's Effect on Harrisburg I I A feature of.the measure is that it, I requires present employes of the de partments affected to have had two t years experience at their jobs in order to be exempt from the requirement that b they take civil service examinations if i they ar e to be retained. In Harris - burg it wouM have the effect of oust ing two poli.-e sergeants and about ten t other policemen who have not yet hail slt wo years experience. They * would - j have to take their examinations with j new applicants for positions on tile t j force and on the same basis as the new applicants.

Most of the jitney operators who consented to discuss their business said that the daily receipts average about, $7. Some of the more conservative fixed $G as the average. Others said that on especially busy days they have collected as much as $lO. As a rule, the chauffeurs have no schedule and simply depend on the placards they carry on their cars to at tract passengers, thereby taking the chance of making a quick, brief trip for the fare. The 135 jitney licenses all were lift ed after the Jitney Transportation Com pany was organized by local capitalists who announced their intention to oper ate a S-cent bus line. Officers of that company declined to-day to announce their plans for the future, saving the.v now are awaiting the action of the State Legislature on a number of pend ing bills which have to do with the operation of jitneys. Several jitney owners declared to day that their expenses are very heavy. "We are constantly repairing the car and I fear if I were not al>le to make the repairs myself instead of hav ing the machine shopped, I would be compelled to quit the business," said one of the operators. Accidents have befallen a number of cars and the expenses incurred thereby have made the owners of some of the buses think it advisable to quit the game. GERMANY'S REPLY STILL WITHHELD Continued From Firnt Pnffc. bv (iabriele D'Annunzio, who was car ried on the shoulders of the people. He declared War was sacred, purifying and exalting. The enthusiasm wis increas ed by an address by Prince Colonua, Mayor of Rome, in which ho emphasiz ed the necessity for Italy to partici pate in the war. In an article summarizing the situa tion, the "Tribune" says, "the die is cast, the rubicon is crossed and till) triple alliance has been denounced." Made Concessions to Italy Budapest, May 18.—Admission that he had offered territorial compensation to Italy as the price of continued peace ful relations was made by Count Step han Tiszu, the Hungarian premier, in a carefully wordied Diet speech yesterday. He declined definitely, however, to state the nature of the concessions pro posed. His speech was in reply to a question by Count Andrassv who de clared the opposition could not consent to yield territory to Italy unless as sured that this step was not a mere matter of momentary necessity but the product of a definite policy aiming nt the elimination in future of all enmity between Italy and Austria-Hungary. "I opine," said Count Andrassy, "that discord between the two States would be a disadvantage to both and profit would accrue only to a thiril party which would take advantage of this opportunity to obtain lasting su premacy in the Mediterranean." Count Tisza in reply endorsed the j views of Count Andrassy. Predict Pope in Peace Conference Home, May 18 Via Paris, 9.54 A. M. —The declaration has born maile liero that Monsigner Wilhelm Nolens, the Netherlands prelate now in this city, was sent with the purpose of re establishing a Dutch legation to the Vatican, a- mission which was sup pressed when diplomatic relations be tween Holland and the Vatican were interrupted as a result of the failure of the Netherlands Minister of Foreign Affairs to invite Pope Ijco to the first peace conference at the Hague. In these efforts some observers see a purpose to hold the peace conference which will follow the war at The Hague, with the l'ope taking part.
